Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am loving my new Boxster GTS 4.0, but am regretting my stinginess in not getting painted roll over bars, despite it having all sorts of other more than arguably unnecessary stuff... Can anyone help me sort this out - I am wondering if there is anywhere than can either paint them or wrap them to match. Has anyone done this who can recommend someone who knows what they are doing? Hampshire or Surrey based preferably. Many thanks!

If you want gloss black, then there's an existing OEM Part no you can buy: 98204480020 https://www.design911.co.uk/fu/prod138782/Porsche-...

POST 3Original post

i think you should dwell on it a bit longer.... i actually prefer it unpainted. the CGT painted roll hoop is such that it breaks up the long rear deck, in the boxster this is unnecessary. i would leave it as is. trust me, in a few years you might think of it differently if you don't now.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks all - you may be right. In the absence of any suggestion how to do it, I will live with a a bit longer.

POST 6Original post

Personally, I like the idea of a matching painted hoop and have it on my Boxster. Not sure I would pay extra for it now though as I included it in the build and it seemed a stupid price even then. YMYC

POST 7Original post

take it this way. i had a 987 spyder and had painted roll hoops. i didn't think ti added anything on the 718 spyder that i spec. i left it out. unnecessary and an unadorned rear deck is lovely. we are all suckers for add-ons but sometimes less is indeed more

POST 8Original post

Personal preference but I think painted hoops look miles better. A couple of people on Boxanet have had theirs painted, the parts can be removed and just get a paint shop to paint them for you.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
